[PATCH] intel_idle: Fix max_cstate for processor models without C-state tables

From: Chen Yu
Date: Sat Oct 24 2020 - 12:27:52 EST


Currently intel_idle driver gets the c-state information from ACPI
_CST if the processor model is not recognized by it. However the
c-state in _CST starts with index 1 which is different from the
index in intel_idle driver's internal c-state table. While
intel_idle_max_cstate_reached() was previously introduced to
deal with intel_idle driver's internal c-state table, re-using
this function directly on _CST might get wrong. Fix this by
subtracting the index by 1 when checking max cstate via _CST.
For example, append intel_idle.max_cstate=1 in boot command line,
Before the patch:
grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name
POLL
After the patch:
grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state0/name:POLL
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state1/name:C1_ACPI
